#1 zombiegleemax Sep 01, 2003 18:56:17	I was looking through the geography section in the DLCS and found that a few of the locations seem to have 'shifted' a little from their traditional resting places from 4th to 5th age. Is this due to the 'Chaos' Cataclysm or just the Artistic interpretation of the cartographer? Both the High Clerist's Tower and the Location of Qualinost seem to have drifted east... Also can anyone tell me how the Forest near Tarsis came about, I presume it had something to do with the Dragon Overlords (probably Beryllinthrannox). Arandur
#2 baron_the_curse Sep 01, 2003 19:26:06	Arandur, you are correct about the forest near Tarsis. Beryllinthrannox is responsible for that. I know what you mean alot of places seem off... I think even Wayreth Forest is off, I remember it being more to the north of Qualinesti.

#4 zombiegleemax Sep 01, 2003 19:42:56	Tal, I believe I recall hearing you mention Claren Elian(?) a few times on the board before (I think your party is from there). Was wondering what you can tell me about the location or where the information about it is? Arandur
#5 talinthas Sep 01, 2003 19:51:04	claran elian is an island off of the coast of goodlund there. Its home to a culture of monks and assassins, and lots of other cool flavor. Mainly, it was described in Oddesy of Gilthanas, the novel/game product fusion. really cool stuff.
#6 zombiegleemax Sep 01, 2003 20:00:21	Was that SAGA based or 2nd Edition (not that it matters, I personally liked SAGA)? Just makes it easier to find at gaming stores... Arandur

I know what you mean alot of places seem off... I think even Wayreth Forest is off, I remember it being more to the north of Qualinesti. Wayreth forest (and its tower build site) has always been shown to the southwest of Qualinesti lands. It was shown there in all the SAGA products, in the Dragonlance Adventures hardcover, in the Tales of the Lance boxed set, in the Atlas of the Dragonlance World, etc. As for the location of Qualinost. What Qualinost? All I see is a giant lake of death ...
#9 zombiegleemax Sep 02, 2003 0:48:51	Qualinost is the big Lake of Death.....otherwise known as Nalis Aren. Qualinost would be under it, more specifically.
